Transition and Pathways

Young Endeavour Program

Apply to set sail in a Tall Ship. Aged 16-23 and ready for your next adventure? Join a crew of 24 young Australians and embark on a life-changing journey – learning not only how to sail a square-rigged tall ship, but how to lead, support others and work together as a team.

On board, learn the skills needed to sail the ship, including keeping watch on deck, handling lines, taking the helm, navigating using the ship’s electronic charts, assisting the chef in the galley and climbing the 30-metre mast to set and fur sails.

No sailing experience required, only a willingness to give everything a go! Financial assistance is available to eligible applicants. Apply online now to enter the ballot for 2023 voyages.
